Symposia
Domestic Revolutions and Feminist Cities
The feminist city is a work in progress. Across the globe, campaigns for egalitarian cities are redefining public and private life to offer new models of urbanism, infrastructure, and architecture. Organized by Tatiana Bilbao, Charles Gwathmey Professor in Practice, and Annie Barrett, senior critic in architecture, and dedicated to professor emerita Dolores Hayden, this symposium will convene innovators from Europe, Latin America, and the United States who are reinventing cities in more equitable forms. From Vienna’s Fair-Shared City to Barcelona’s Collective Kitchens and Bogotá’s Care Blocks, the symposium will showcase feminist urbanism through new approaches to public safety, domestic labor, and civic infrastructure.
